#3: Product Review

Fall is usually a very active season for consumers. After school lets back in, we are trampled with fall fashion traffic, holiday traditions, and not to mention the "deals" that we just can't pass up. But, if you follow the Apple Inc. trends like a 16 year-old would keep up with the Kardashians, fall means that thousands of dollars will be burned on a brand new iPhone upon its release.

In 2017, Apple baffled the public by dropping not one but three iPhone additions; There is the iPhone 8, the iPhone 8 Plus, and the iPhone X (pronounced iPhone "ten"). The purpose of this triple threat was to maximize sales by providing a smartphone that attracts the entry-level users that usually stray because of the high prices while also catering to the veterans that are only really shook by the new advances.
Virtually, the iPhone 8 and 8+ are exactly the same as the iPhone 7 and 7+ give or take a design change or two. So let's focus on the iPhone X. As we all know, every change to the newest edition's design is tagged as revolutionary, but is it really? The features that seem to make this product desirable are the 5.8-inch Super Retina screen, facial recognition features, and portrait mode. Neither are brand new to the advocated smartphone scene. As a matter of fact they, Android has played around with each of the features for years, but Apple has a unique system of exposure that makes them feel like they are original ideas especially for their clientele. The new all-screen front is more of an aesthetic feature that does not really add anything to the ease of access. According to Techradar:



The disappearance of the home button is a very debatable topic especially if you are an Android user considering the conversion. Yes, the look is sleeker without it, but will consumers be up for learning a whole new set of controls? Touch ID is completely booted from the iPhone X; This means if face recognition ever decides to fail, you have the option to type in your personally generated pass code.
